X Games Aspen 2026 has revealed its full music lineup coming to Buttermilk Ski Area this January.
This year’s mix of artists features previously announced headliners Alesso and Disco Lines, in addition to newly announced daytime performances from TESSLA, Kendoll, Girlfriends, and a DJ debut by X Games gold medal skateboarder and Olympian Sky Brown.
And, this year all daytime music performances will be free and open to the public.
Friday (Jan. 23) lineup
TESSLA is a female DJ duo who split their time between L.A. and Aspen. They create unique DJ mixes that span genres including house, disco, and pop electronic, according to a press release. They performed on Perry Stage at Lallapalooza in Chicago last summer and will be returning to X Games Aspen to perform on Friday afternoon for a free show.
Disco Lines will perform Friday night fresh off the global success of his smash single “No Broke Boys,” which is currently charting on Spotify’s Top Songs in the World and recently hit #1 on Billboard’s Hot Dance/Electronic Songs chart, according to the release. This show is ticketed.
Saturday (Jan. 24) lineup
Two-time Olympic medalist skateboarder Sky Brown will take the stage for her DJ debut at 17 years old. When Brown isn’t skating, she enjoys writing, rapping, and singing, according to the release — she even released a single titled “Girl” when she was only 12 in 2020.
DJ and producer Kendoll started her career in Seattle at 16 and has garnered massive support from industry giants such as Insomniac. She’s played alongside big artists like AC Slater, Wax Motif, Dr. Fresch, Slushii, Marshmello, Redlight, Anna Lunoe, Destructo, Chris Lorenzo, and many more. This performance is free.
Girlfriends, a duo of longtime friends, have wowed audiences globally with their brand of pop-punk since they joined forces at the beginning of the decade, the press release states. They perform at festivals around the world and support genre titans like Avril Lavigne, Pierce the Veil, and The Used. This performance is free.
Alesso will close out the stage on Saturday night. Alesso has made history as the first international recording artist to score two consecutive #1 hits on Billboard Dance Radio. He’s launched his own label, BodyHi. In 2025, he’s not only continued to top the charts with releases like “Destiny” and “Inside Our Hearts,” but he’s also fused the worlds of sports and music with a performance alongside GRAMMY-nominated cellist Tina Guo in their remix of “Ascension” at the Esports World Cup Opening Ceremony, according to the release. This event will be ticketed.
Winter events
X Games 2026 is also bringing back what the press release calls “the world’s most iconic winter events” — this includes ski and snowboard slopestyle, superpipe, big air, and knuckle huck, and the return of snowmobile speed & style and freestyle.
“More than 100 of the world’s best skiers, snowboarders, and snowmobile riders will compete for X Games gold and global glory,” the press release reads.
